Answers:
Dear j e there is absolutely nothing you can do, if in fact your boyfriend is an alcoholic. Aside from talking to him and giving him an ultimatum, the decision to change his behavior will have to be his before it is successful. Alcoholics suffer from an insidious disease which is difficult to treat and, even after treatment, the rate of recidivism is extremely high. You need to evaluate your role in his illness. Are you being an enabler? Are you willing to take the risk that his behavior will not change and will start to negatively effect your life? Stop and think what your future holds for you unless he make a dramatic attempt to escape the grip of alcoholism. best wishes
